Good Life Good Death Good Grief: Scottish Compassionate Communities Network

Good Life Good Death Good Grief is launching a new Scottish Compassionate Communities Network on Mon 8 Oct at the Charteris Centre, Edinburgh.

The network is for people and organisations who want to get involved in practical work to build compassion in their own community, with a particular focus on improving people’s experiences of deteriorating health, death, dying and bereavement.

The event will give network members a chance to meet each other, discuss the potential creation of a Scottish Compassionate Communities toolkit, and learn about community development approaches.

This event is only open to people who have signed up to be part of the Compassionate Communities Network. However, it is free to join the network and you can sign up here. Once you’ve signed up, you can book a free place at the event here.

For more information please contact Robert Peacock – Good Life, Good Death, Good Grief, Scottish Partnership for Palliative Care – [email protected]
